A typical black cavendish blend with a nice vanilla taste, hints of cocoa, slightly toasty, with a dash of light syrup. It'll get a little harsh if you puff it fast, and get goopy at the bottom of the bowl. Has little nicotine. Sip it and it'll do pretty well for you. Burns at a moderate rate with a consistent flavor. Needs some relights as it's moist. Has a decent after taste. An all day smoke. Also sold by Tinderbox under their house name.

It is not that I dislike this tobacco, but it upsets my stomach. Maybe I am a bit psycho, because I like Lane's BCA and Pipeworks' Mettowee. Anybody have an idea why my stomach wants to leave me when I attempt this blend?

What if you want a nice room note, but don't want the heavy topping (and the attendant problems) of an aromatic? Lamplighter solves that problem nicely. Because it is a Cavendish it obviously has sugar, but aside from that, if it does have any topping, it is very light indeed. It burns cool and very dry right down to the heel of the pipe. And it has a very pleasant room note.
In terms of strength, it has a reasonable nicotine kick - actually more than I prefer, but not overwhelming.
That leaves us with taste, and this aspect is where I'm currently less than enthusiastic about this blend. I didn't find the taste especially unpleasant, the problem was more that I could hardly find it at all.
But if you like Black Cavs with mild flavor, by all means give this a try.
